Since none of the Ye family objected, the matter was settled.

After roughly drawing up a charter, Zhao Heng first went to Shu to try his best to get the method of firing colored glaze.

The Ye family raised capital first, planned to burn the kiln and reserve charcoal.

Zhao Heng still needs to go to the escort agency first to see if there is any work that goes to Shu recently.

Before leaving, he also reminded Ye Hongchang, "The group of people who came to cause trouble yesterday were probably Zhao Donglai's men. You should be careful."

Ye Hongchang didn't know who Zhao Donglai was and looked confused.

Zhao Heng said, "He is the brother-in-law of the county magistrate. He relies on his brother-in-law to engage in several businesses, including the poultry business. He often dominates the market. I think your duck house is an eyesore to him."

Ye Hongchang was still thinking about who was looking for trouble, but after hearing what Zhao Heng said, he knew better.

"Thank you for reminding."

Zhao Heng said, "I can only remind you, you have to be careful. If you didn't get a favor yesterday, Zhao Donglai will definitely not let it go. His brother-in-law is also the county magistrate. If you really care about it, you can't get any benefit."

This is indeed a problem, but Ye Hongchang did not think about backing down when the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth.

"Okay, I have an idea."

After sending Zhao Heng away, Ye Hongchang was thinking about how to deal with Zhao Donglai.

Logically speaking, they were doing business honestly and did not deliberately lower their prices, so they could not hinder anyone.

But even if there are such people, they still can't stand it when you do business normally, and they always look for trouble.

Moreover, there are people protecting the other party. If Magistrate Zheng is in trouble, it will be really difficult for them to handle it.

But now you can only take one step at a time, and no one has taken any action yet. Even if you have to deal with it, how can you deal with it?

Magistrate Zheng was difficult for them at first, but later he was quite polite.

There was nothing wrong with the duck house transaction, and Ye Hongchang was not sure whether Magistrate Zheng wanted to protect his official reputation or just favored his own family.

Magistrate Zheng has had a severe headache these past two days. His brother-in-law is annoying enough, but his mother-in-law is also here.

His mother-in-law is a great person. She behaves wildly and willfully at home, and no one can dissuade her.

Because he was married to a senior citizen when they first got married, and the Zhao family contributed a lot to his education, so even though he had an official position, he still couldn't stand upright in front of the Zhao family.

He persuaded his brother-in-law to leave a few days ago. He thought the matter had been resolved and didn't take it to heart.

Unexpectedly, my brother-in-law was so angry that he asked someone to go to Ye's house to make trouble, but he still didn't get any benefits.

And it happened that his mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, came to visit her son. She saw that her darling son had been wronged and everyone under his command was beaten. How could this be tolerated?

Zhao Donglai exaggerated, and Mrs. Zhang hated the Ye family to the core. When she learned that her son-in-law didn't care, she immediately came to make trouble.

In the past two days, the house was almost uninhabitable, and the crying in the backyard could be heard in the front yard. If Zhao hadn't stopped her, Mrs. Zhang would have gone to the street to cry.

Originally, using the financial resources of his father-in-law's family to study was a thorn in Magistrate Zheng's heart. He didn't want people to know about it, but Zhao was considerate of him and never mentioned it.

Fortunately, now, all the servants in the mansion know about this. I only heard about it in general before, but now I can hear all the details clearly.

The servants did not dare to talk about the master, but Magistrate Zheng himself had no face. Even his two sons asked him if he was so poor that he could not afford to eat. He relied on his grandfather's family to have everything he had today.

Magistrate Zheng was upset and gave his son a lesson.

The royal secretary said, "Sir, we have to think of a way. If I let the old lady continue to shout like this, I'm afraid..."

I'm afraid the whole street will know.

When the time comes, the county magistrate will be even more shameless. How can he govern the people in this area?

Magistrate Zheng rubbed his temples, "You think I don't want to stop it? But I, the mother-in-law, can't be dealt with by ordinary people. Even my wife can't persuade her."

Chief Wang is also very worried. If something happens to Shangfeng, he won't be able to get a good deal. Of course, he still wants to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

"My lord, in view of my humble position, I still need to think of a way to deal with this matter. Mrs. Zhao is making such a fuss just because of Mr. Zhao's affairs. If you satisfy them, it should be fine."

Magistrate Zheng said, "I don't understand this, but it's not like you don't know. That's the Ye family, and I don't want to mess with the Ye family."

Ye Liwen successfully entered the government school in such a short period of time, which shows that he is a talented person. If everything goes well, he might be an official in a few years. What is the benefit of offending the Ye family?

Moreover, the Ye family's business was done according to the rules. It was his brother-in-law who was greedy and wanted to make a lot of money, but he was so talented that others took away the business.

Master Wang knew what he was worried about and whispered, "Although it is not easy to offend the Ye family, the matter at hand is urgent. Sir, if Mrs. Zhao keeps shouting like this..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was movement outside. Mrs. Zhang shouted loudly, "Is it okay if you hide and don't see anyone? I'm your mother-in-law. Why didn't you know how to hide when you spent my family's money? You are hiding well now."

"Let me tell you, if you are so ungrateful, I will never let you go. I will make you lose face."

Magistrate Zheng said hurriedly, "Quickly stop her and don't let her in."

It's just too late.

As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Zhang had already opened the door and entered the study. When she saw Magistrate Zheng here, she was choked and angry.

"Okay, you are hiding here, do you think you can get over it by hiding from people? Our Zhao family has never treated you badly. When you were a poor boy, we didn't dislike you and still married our daughter. You, this is how you repay us now?"

"Haha, you are unkind and I am unjust. Today I will publicize everything and let the people of Wushan County judge and see if you can continue to be the county official."

How dare County Magistrate Zheng let her go out and talk about it? Although this is his private matter and has nothing to do with official business, the evaluation period is coming soon. It will definitely not be good for him to cause such a thing now.

Such a simple truth can be understood by everyone.

If he cannot be promoted or is criticized by his superiors, what benefits can the Zhao family get?

It's impossible that Mrs. Zhang doesn't understand, but that's her temperament. As long as she doesn't get her way, what if everything is turned upside down?

Magistrate Zheng said hurriedly, "Mother-in-law, if you have any dissatisfaction, just tell me. We are a family, so why make it so ugly?"

Mrs. Zhang put her hands on her hips and cursed, "I want to have a good talk with you. Have you given me this chance? Let me tell you, the third child in our family cannot bear this injustice. Anyone who robs his business will be dealt with. We must make him happy." That’s all.”

Magistrate Zheng is angry but short-tongued. Now the Ye family must be provoked.

It's so deserted, so lonely and cold
